Tekken (鉄拳) is a 2010 martial arts film directed by Dwight Little, based on the fighting game series of the same name. The film followsJin Kazama (Jon Foo) in his attempts to enter the Iron Fist Tournament in order to avenge the loss of his mother, Jun Kazama, by confronting his father, Kazuya Mishima (Ian Anthony Dale) and his grandfather, Heihachi Mishima (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa), the latter of whom he thought were responsible for her death. As of January 14, 2010, an international trailer has been released.

Plot

In the year of 2039, after World Wars destroy much of civilization as we know it, territories are no longer run by governments, but by corporations; the mightiest of which is the Mishima Zaibatsu. In order to placate the seething masses of this dystopia, Mishima sponsors the King of Iron Fist Tournament, or Tekken, in which fighters battle until one is left standing, who in turn will receive a lifetime of stardom and wealth. We are introduced to this violent world through the eyes of Jin Kazama, a rebellious teenage street fighter who enters the tournament in order to avenge the death of his mother that he blames upon the Mishima Zaibatsu's most powerful and controlling chairman – Heihachi Mishima. He knows that the only way to get close enough to Mishima to kill him is to win the tournament, but in doing so, he begins to uncover his own past and inner demons as well as exposing a dark underbelly to Tekken that threatens the very existence of humanity.

Iron Man 2 (PSP) Game Free Download

2010-07-08T10:34:00.001-07:00

Hollywood’s insatiable appetite for comic book adaptations shows no signs of slowing down and for Sega, that’s positive news.

The former hardware manufacturer is now an established publisher with a raft of superhero-focused titles under its belt. Iron Man 2 marks the most recent addition to this stable.

Danger, Danger

Coding duties are handled by High Voltage Software, who – if you'll allow us the brief sidestep into console territory – previously found fame creating the graphically impressive Wii FPS, The Conduit.

Advertis

It's worth mentioning because similar feats of technological engineering are present here. Iron Man 2 may not be the most visually attractive PSP title out there but it flows along at a steady pace and packs in plenty of on-screen action.

Controlling Iron Man – and later his ally War Machine – is accomplished using almost every available button on Sony's handheld. The analogue stick influences movement while the four face buttons act as a secondary controller, enabling you to target your weapons. Discharging said weaponry is handled via the trigger buttons.

It’s a set-up which has been utilised before and succeeds in granting the player a satisfying degree of control over their on-screen avatar but it won't stop you (again) wishing that the PSP had a dual analogue interface during the more intense fire fights.

Portable pugilism

Iron Man 2’s gameplay is enjoyable enough, enabling the player to mix up melee attacks with long-range combat, but the mission objectives are typically uninspiring and the enemies show only a small amount of intelligence.

That said, a moderately interesting storyline helps alleviate the stifling lack of originality and the ability to upgrade your various combat suits gives a nice feeling of progression.

As licensed superhero titles go them, Iron Man 2 is jolly good fun. Fans of the aforementioned movie will lap it up but anyone expecting it to push the boundaries of video game design will come away disappointed.

Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands (PSP) Free Download

2010-07-08T10:20:00.001-07:00

The PSP version is a side-scrolling 2.5D platformer that roughly follows the same style as the other versions. It has a different storyline involving freeing the sisters of time, and a different antagonist.

The PSP version features a plot in which the prophecy is written that a member of Prince's royal family will bring end to an evil fire spirit Ahihud's dark reign over hidden mystic land. To ensure his survival, the evil spirit's minions hunt down those with the royal blood. Prince escapes his tower, where he is kept protected by his father, and pursues a mysterious guiding light, which turns out to be Helem, a spirit of time who promises to help the Prince defeat his enemy.

PLOT

The Forgotten Sands returns to the storyline established by Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, and concluded by Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones.^[11] On December 14, 2009, Ubisoft UK released the first details of the story on their official video portal.^[12]

The game is an interquel, taking place in the seven year gap^[13] between Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time and Prince of Persia: Warrior Within. The Prince character is supposed to be a cross between the character models in these two games. Once again he will be voiced by Yuri Lowenthal.^[14]

The plot of main game, developed for PS3, Xbox 360, and PC, begins as the Prince is riding through a desert on his horse, on a quest to see his brother, Malik, and learn about leadership from him. When the Prince arrives at Malik's kingdom, he finds it under attack by an army who he proposes wants a treasure buried deep within. The Prince infiltrates Malik's kingdom, and meets up with Malik in the treasure vaults.

Some changes are made to the standard Metal Gear Solid formula. Movement is done on the analog stick; actions such as co-op actions use the directional-pad; melee actions, which include multiple throws into crowds of enemies, use the R button; and weapons use the L button with the R button. Players will be unable to move or shoot while lying down and while pinned on a wall. The player can set the control system according to that of Portable Ops^[8], Guns of the Patriots, or Capcom's Monster Hunter.

The Comrade System from Portable Ops has been removed in favor of cooperative gameplay, with two players in main missions and up to four players in boss missions, called Co-Ops. Players can choose one of various different load-outs including one's camouflage.

Naked - wearing only light clothing, players using Naked uniforms move fast and carry less items at the cost of stealth and defense.
Jungle Fatigues - A balance of stealth, defense, weapons and inventory.
Sneaking Suit - A different version of Snake's uniform from Portable Ops, the Sneaking Suit allows players to move without generating foot noises, but can carry less items.
Battle Dress - A heavily armored variant, players equipped with the suit can carry a third firearm and take significantly less damage, but at the cost of less items, slow movement speed and low camouflage.

Kamen Rider Kivala "henshin" by Natsumi

Decade: The Last Story

Kamen Rider Decade: The Last Story (仮面ライダーディケイド～完結編～, Kamen Raidā Dikeido ~Kanketsuhen~) follows the series cliffhanger ending at the climax of the Rider War. The film is billed as the "True Ending" (本当の終わり, Hontō no Owari?) and was originally subtitled Decade vs. All Riders (ディケイド対オールライダー, Dikeido tai Ōru Raidā?).

Accepting his fate as the destroyer of Worlds, Tsukasa has been fighting Kamen Riders, carding the search group of Skyrider, Super-1, and Kabuto, before running into a group of Riotroopers under Yusuke. Elsewhere, Daiki Kaito visits the Hikari Studio, convincing Natsumi to destroy Tsukasa's camera and photos, as they are only bittersweet memories of what used to be. By then, Decade's fight with Kamen Rider J enters their dimension as he uses Kamen Rider G4's Gigant and the Side Basshar to card J. Confronted by the Riotroopers, a young girl named Yuriko Misaki arrives and becomes Electro-Wave Human Tackle to take down the Riotroopers. She follows Tsukasa as he runs into Natsumi and Yusuke, who intends to stop Decade regardless of his injuries from the aftermath of Kamen Rider J's destruction. After explaining that he merely accepted his mission, Natsumi wants Tsukasa to remember who he was, taking a photo of him, when he smacks the camera out of her hand. Tsukasa does not want to live in the past anymore as he walks off. Natsumi feels powerless until Kiva-la arrives to remind Natsumi of Narutaki's words that only she can defeat Decade, offering her power to ensure it.

梦幻诛仙

2009-12-16T12:19:00.001-08:00

随着完美时空2D回合新作网游《梦幻诛仙》轮回内测的开启，《梦幻诛仙》同名大片也在同一时间进入了紧张的筹备阶段。在经过几番激烈的角逐之后，《梦幻诛仙》同名大片的演员基本已经确定，其中六大门派的主角将全部启用“剑侠三”的原班人马，相信一定可以给喜欢《梦幻诛仙》的玩家们一个惊喜！

　　日前，《梦幻诛仙》的官方网站首次曝光了六套明星主角的壁纸。

　　青云门：陈御风(胡歌)

　　陈御风与他的名字不同，身为青云门下的第一大弟子，他的身上更多的是一种隐忍和低调。而太极玄清道法则成为了他在孤寂之时唯一令他的内心获得安慰之物。他英俊、冷酷;除了脸上习惯性的微笑，他几乎对任何事情都没兴趣。但喜欢说三道四的同门师兄却经常在背后评论他为“冷酷的不近人情”，可即使是听到这样的言论，陈御风依然无动于衷。没人能看透这位清修者的内心。

胡哥饰演陈御风

　　合欢派：花弄影(唐嫣)

　　身为合欢派新代弟子中姿色最出众的一个，花弄影与身为狐妖的合欢不同。她天生就妖艳美丽，更练得一身魅惑之术，常常以采阳补阴之法修炼。她一直自负的认为天下男人都逃不过自己的鬼魅勾魂，直到…遇到了身负重伤的七杀;当她想对这个受伤的男人下手时，却惊讶的发现这个男人完全不受自己的魅惑！为什么？她一直想知道，即使是跟随七杀到天涯海角……

唐嫣饰演花弄影

妩媚痴情的花弄影

　　焚香谷：柳潇潇(刘诗诗)

　　美貌绝伦的柳潇潇，早在她的师兄南宫烈没有使出“八重玄火枪”成为焚香谷一代新星之前，就已经是师门中众星捧月的人物了，但是柳潇潇并不以为然。虽然美貌，但是她却不疏于修炼;她的优秀似乎并不于此，天性的善良让她更具魅力。也因此，师门中的师兄师弟都把奉为心中的女神，但是柳潇潇却丝毫不为所动，直到遇到了那只被她放走的白狐。

刘诗诗饰演柳潇潇

　　鬼王宗：七杀(袁弘)

　　七杀，从哪里来，没人知道，他好像生来就是杀手一般，除了执行直接上级鬼王和鬼先生的命令外，七杀不多说一句话，不多看别人一眼，即使同门中常常一起执行任务的末离也不知道七杀在想什么。在人们的眼里，七杀简直就是一部杀人机器，他出现的场合，其他弟子都大气不敢出。所有人都以为七杀是无情和冷血的，只有七杀自己明白，他在乎一个人，也只在乎这一个人，那就是，小姐。

袁弘饰演七杀

陈御风七杀对决

　　《梦幻诛仙》同名大片不仅演员阵容强大，制作人员更是藏龙卧虎。目前已确认的消息是，首席制作总监李国立、武术招式创意总监陈伟涛、天才荧幕造型创意师陈顾方Shirley、资深服装搭配指导师宋晓涛Doris、国际时尚界著名摄影师李琦等人都将参与该剧的拍摄。《梦幻诛仙》同名大片的拍摄工作目前正在紧张的进行中。

Ninja Assassin - Ninja Assassin packs punch

2009-11-25T00:02:00.000-08:00

Ninja Assassin
Director: James McTeigue
Stars: Rain, Naomie Harris, Sho Kosugi
Classification: 18A

Ninja Assassin is a modern take on an old story.

Martial arts, anime appeal and modern action filmmaking is alive and well in Ninja Assassin, the latest by director James McTeigue (V for Vendetta).

A modern take on an old story, the movie shows blood-spitting ninja fight sequences with manga-like exaggeration. And who doesn’t like ninjas?

McTeigue opts for flashy visual effects and darkened artistry, mixing up a traditional genre with modern-day action, complete with secret agents, Europol and a brigade of armed agents with machine guns.

The ripped and conflicted protagonist Raizo is played by Korean pop star Rain, who proves he can chop the part in a martial arts flick, however modernized with acrobatic moves and blood-gore effects.

They couldn’t resist throwing in a reference to his boy-band past when an agent makes a comment on his looks.

The storyline gets a little convoluted when Europol gets involved in the ninja-genre story of frayed loyalties and retribution.

The setting jumps to Berlin where forensic researcher Mika Coretti, played be Naomie Harris (28 Days Later), defies the orders of her superior when she discovers a money trail that leads to the elusive assassins of the east.

She quickly becomes the target of the deadly Ozuno Clan who seem to have considerably enhanced qualities, moving like shadowy figures with silence and stealth, until they face the main character Raizo.

Raizo’s back story is solid in martial arts style, an orphan who is trained to be a killer, enduring harsh discipline in training sequences, a conflict of loyalty and forbidden love.

Martial arts master Sho Kosugi plays the ruthless father of the Ozuno Clan, adding presence to the genre, delivering lines of wisdom.

Although the movie packs some serious action punch with fight scenes that are wickedly vivid and bloody, there are a few moments that reveal its weaknesses, from cheesy one-liners to borderline acting.

But if Quentin Tarantino’s style can be said to stay true in the retro realm, McTeigue ventures into new territory by molding old influences like film noir, B-movie horror, anime and martial arts into a modern action film in Ninja Assassin.

Anime Review: Claymore

2009-11-24T20:30:00.000-08:00

by Josh Viel, 24 Nov 2009 15:14

When it comes to anime, I tend to look toward action-based series with a cautious eye. Too often, it seems, writers for action series take the easy route and fill them with paper-thin characters and nonexistent stories. Entertaining at times, perhaps, but entertainment at its most basic. Which is why, when I first read up about Claymore, and found that the series was essentially described as "girl that wield giant swords fight monsters," I was not enthusiastic. "Oh great," I remember thinking, "this is going to be another giant mess of incessant and needless fight scenes with no plot and too much fan-service."

Fortunately, I am happy to inform you that I was utterly and completely wrong.

Now, the setting of Claymore isn't particularly unique: In a fantasy world modeled on - what else? - medieval Europe, an organization consisting almost entirely of tall, blond, female warriors who wield large Claymores hunt down demonic creatures known as "yoma" to protect humans. Well, okay. The group of protagonists being comprised almost entirely by tall blond women isn't very common, especially in a shonen series, but still; this is essentially a "good guys versus demons" show, and it would be an understatement to say "that's been done before." So what's so special about this one?

Perhaps the most important element that sets Claymore apart from the rest is its intensely character-driven story. Whereas many action shows shove character development to the wayside to make room for... well, more action, the characters in Claymore are at the forefront of everything; they drive the action. Because the story flows out of the decisions of the characters, there is a clear sense that actions do have consequences - something that's oddly lacking in many other shows. So don't expect an abundance of deus ex machina devices to bail the characters out of their bad decisions. This makes it much harder to predict the outcome of fights, because there are few characters you can easily bet on just because the plot dictates that they can't die.

The dark themes of the setting also provide plenty of opportunities for character development. The secret behind the Claymores (the name given to the blade-wielding women by everyone else in this fantasy world, due to the swords they carry) is that yoma flesh has been implanted into their bodies in order to enhance their abilities. This comes at the cost of constantly having to battle against their yoma side, lest they "awaken" and become the very thing they despise. Additionally, those responsible for the creation and administration of the Claymores view them as completely expendable, quickly creating friction between the organization and its own foot-soldiers.

Unfortunately, the story starts to drag near the end, as the fights take longer and longer and become increasingly over-the-top. This would be less of a problem if the ending made up for it, but Claymore is sadly lacking in that area as well. Like many anime series, Claymore is based on a serialized manga series. And like many such anime series, the anime version of Claymore began production while the manga was still unfinished - in fact, the Claymore manga is still ongoing as of this writing. Suffice it to say, Claymore ends on a cliffhanger, leaving major plot threads hanging.

This is not to say that the ending is handled badly. In fact, for a series that is dedicated to following the manga's plot, the ending of Claymore is handled quite well. It ends at a logical point, at the climax of a major story arc, rather than in the middle of an arc like other series I could name. And it does tie up a number (but certainly not all) of the major and minor plot threads. Still, it was a disappointment to see the otherwise excellent series end without a true conclusion.

Visually, the series is outstanding, with fluid fight scenes and crisp animation. Still, there was one issue I found with the art, and it really has more to do with character design rather than the art itself: Every Claymore has blond hair, silver eyes, and wears an identical outfit. Now think about the amount of facial detail you tend to get with the typical anime art-style and you'll begin to see why this could be a problem. It doesn't really rear its head for most of the series, however, in the last few episodes there are two dozen Claymores gathered at one place for a major confrontation, and nearly every scene just devolves into a guessing game.

Discontent Seeps Into Japan's Anime Studios

Low Pay, Long Hours and Dwindling Demand Change the Plot for Animation Juggernaut

By YUKA HAYASHI

TOKYO—Anime, Japan's stylized animation that has become hugely popular around the world, helped reshape the country's image as a cultural trend-setter. But behind the scenes, things aren't so rosy.

Japan's animation industry is struggling. Anime workers are unhappy, toiling long hours at low pay. Sales have been declining. On top of that, there is fast-growing competition from across Asia. Studios in China and South Korea now churn out high-quality anime-style programs, helped by cheaper labor and, in some cases, government subsidies.

The Decline of Anime

View Slideshow

Getty Images

An 18-meter robot hero from the popular animation series "Gundam" was installed in Tokyo in July.

In a nation once known for its manufactured goods, anime has grown into Japan's most popular cultural export, influencing animation artistry world-wide, with a following among adults as well as children. The anime movie "Spirited Away" won the 2002 Academy Award for best animated feature, and before that the Pokemon franchise was a television staple and box-office success in the U.S., not to mention a trading-card and merchandising frenzy.

A shrinking population of children in Japan has discouraged toy makers, television networks and other traditional sponsors from funding new programs. That has driven many anime studios—most of which are small shops—toward making animated soft porn and violent movies targeted at adult audiences. At the same time, YouTube and other free Internet services have hurt sales of DVDs. Sales of Japanese-made anime DVDs slid 18% from a year earlier to 72.8 billion yen (about $800 million) in 2008, after peaking at 93.7 billion yen in 2006, according to the Japan Video Software Association, a trade group.

Morale is low. Industry executives estimate nine out of 10 new workers quit within three years, with the many talented employees leaving for better-paying jobs in areas like videogames. A survey conducted this year for industry executives showed that animators in their 20s made just 1.1 million yen ($11,000) a year on average, while those in their 30s earned 2.1 million yen.

Yasuna Tadanaga, 23 years old, left her position as an animator at a small Tokyo studio last year, only six months after landing what she thought was her dream job. To meet deadlines, Ms. Tadanaga worked 13 to 14 hours each day. During one month, she was given just one day off.

"The unspoken understanding was we worked on weekends because we loved the work," Ms. Tadanaga said. "We had to have a very good reason to take a day off."

Most young animators work as freelancers and often lack benefits. Many are paid by the number of sketches they produce, and that price has changed little in three decades.

Rie Otani, 22, grew up watching anime after school and dreamed of becoming an animator. After two years of training at a trade school, she joined Telecom Animation FilmCo., a Tokyo studio that participated in the production of "Spirited Away."

But like creative professionals starting out in competitive industries elsewhere, she discovered that the job involved more drudgery than glamour. Her contract position as an entry-level animator requires her to stare at a computer screen for nearly 12 hours a day.

Ms. Otani's goal is 300 sketches a month, and her monthly take-home pay sometimes falls below 100,000 yen ($1,050).

"I enjoy working with all these people who all love anime," says the tall, pony-tailed Ms. Otani, who draws pictures that connect key sketches to create moving images. "But I make so little money, and I worry if I can ever leave my parents and start on my own."

Even the president of Telecom Animation expresses some dismay about the state of the anime world. "The industry has become decadent and fatigued," says Koji Takeuchi, president of Telecom Animation, which is housed in an aging suburban building above a grocery store. "So many pieces are dark and oppressive, and the message of hope and fun is no longer there."

Mr. Takeuchi says his studio has taken steps to help its young employees, such as providing a more affordable health-insurance plan. He says he also promotes skilled animators to permanent positions.

The Japanese government says it is trying to support the industry, with plans to increase spending on education and training young animators and allocating more funds toward film marketing. But nurturing home-grown talent has become more difficult as Japanese companies increasingly outsource anime drawing to studios in China, South Korea and Vietnam, where labor costs are lower.

Osamu Yamazaki, a 47-year-old director of anime films, worries that moving the production process overseas will diminish Japan's ability to cultivate creative talent.

"People have tremendous power by just being young," he says. "Without young blood, we'll lose our ability to think flexibly and creatively."

Nintendo Video-On-Demand Service Set for Japan Launch- Source: Siliconera

2009-11-22T11:15:00.000-08:00

"Theater Room" channel will allow users to watch feature films and TV shows via their Wii console.

The Japan-exclusive Wii no Ma ("Wii's Room") channel is about to get an upgrade that will add the ability for users to watch movies and TV shows via their Wii console. Tomorrow, Nintendo will push an upgrade that will add a theater space called Theater no Ma ("Theater Room").

The service will give the console video-on-demand capabilities much like those seen on the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. Support for the Japanese service will come from companies such as Walt Disney Japan, Warner Brothers Japan, NTV, NHK, Pokemon Corporation, TV Asahi, Sesame Workshop, J League Media, Asmik Ace, Toei, Warp Star, Howcast, and Bonus. Screenshots reveal content such as movies like "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", episodes of the Kirby anime, and several Sesame Street programs featuring Elmo.

Exact content and pricing has yet to be announced, but screenshots reveal a ¥100 pricing for the rental of an episode of Kirby. One interesting technical note is that videos will be able to be transferred to a Nintendo DSi and viewed on the handheld.

Theater no Ma has only been announced for Japan, but Lazard Capital Markets analyst Colin Sebastian recently told Gamasutra that he expects Nintendo to "launch a service in the U.S., establishing a family-oriented media hub in the living room, and providing a more competitive option to Xbox Live and PlayStation Home".

'SKY CRAWLERS: INNOCENT ACES' FOR Wii STARTS ITS FINAL DESCENT INTO EUROPE

NAMCO BANDAI Games Europe to Launch Flight Action Title Based on Acclaimed Anime Feature Film in PAL Regions February 2010 -

CERGY-PONTOISE, FRANCE–19 November 2009– NAMCO BANDAI Games Europe S.A.S today confirmed the Europe and PAL release of Sky Crawlers: Innocent Aces, the flight action game exclusively for Wii based on the acclaimed 2008 Japanese anime feature film from internationally renowned director Mamoru Oshii. The game will bring its unique blend of high altitude fighter action and beguiling Japanese anime production values to Wii players in Europe and beyond on February 2010.

Developed by Project Aces, the team behind Ace Combat at NAMCO BANDAI Games Inc. in Japan, Sky Crawlers: Innocent Aces pushes the Wii hardware to the extremes of its capabilities, delivering an impressively hi-fidelity rendition of intense arcade-style aerial combat. The Wii Nunchuk is used as a joystick to control the planes in flight, and the high altitude action is supplemented with over 30 minutes of gorgeous anime cinematics. The brand new story has been created by the Project Aces team in close collaboration with the licensor, keeping faithful to the Sky Crawlers universe.

“The talented Project Aces team here in Tokyo have worked very hard to make the best possible flight game on Wii and we are very proud with what we have achieved,” said Daisuke Uchiyama, producer NAMCO BANDAI Games Inc.“The control system lets players handle the game like a real aircraft using the Wii Nunchuk as a joystick, which is really a lot of fun for anyone who likes flight games.”

The story starts in a big city where 2.3 million people reside; it is so big that it occupies most of the western region of Tokyo. As 80% of the citizens are students, it is called an academic city. They have special curriculums that develop supernatural abilities, and the students are sorted into different levels, from level 0 to level 5, depending on their supernatural power.

The protagonist, Komijo Toma, is also a student but he is ranked level 0, and is close to dropping out of the school. In his right hand, there resides a special power, “Imagine Breaker”, that nullifies any other supernatural powers; the power even nullifies the saving grace of God.

One day, during the summer break, a Sister in white falls into his room from the air. The nun says that she is running away from the magical world, and names herself Index, or the Index of Prohibited Books. Although he lives in a city in which supernatural powers are taken for granted, he cannot help but suspect the fantastic story told by this girl who must have given him a false name. At that very moment, two wizards appear. Their target is the girl in white, Index.

They are called the Terra Guardians. This is a tale of battle that begins with a chance meeting between a human boy named Keita and a young Tera Guardian girl named Kuro.

Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2 (Continued Story)

2009-09-22T23:17:00.001-07:00

The last episode "25"

Suzaku and Kallen's duel intensifies, leading to a final exchange which disables the Guren and destroys the Lancelot. Lelouch uses his Geass to force Nunnally to give up the key of Damocles. With the fortress under his control, Lelouch unites the world under his tyrannical rule. Two months later, Lelouch prepares to oversee the public execution of the leaders of the U.F.N. and the Black Knights, until Suzaku, believed to be dead and now disguised as Zero, interrupts and kills Lelouch, the culmination of the Zero Requiem as they had planned. By directing the hatred of the world onto himself, Lelouch's death will serve to facilitate peace. He tells Suzaku that he must live as Zero now, even over his personal happiness; nobody must know Zero as anything else. He dies smiling, repeating his earlier declaration that he is the one who destroys worlds and recreates them. The aftermath is narrated by Kallen, who ends up forgiving Lelouch and explains how the world is much better off with all the energy being focused on reconstruction. A short monologue is then given by C.C.

Thank you Code Geass, this song just perfect. It’s kind of curious, this song can be so sad, but at the same time, it can make you feel happy. I like this song so much. The song fit perfectly with the ending.

However, I believe that Lelouch is still alive, though he is dead in the end of the story.
I believe in you..Lelouch......

The story takes place in Fuyuki City. It is a city surrounded by the sea and mountains. In this common city, a shadow encroaches.

The main character had lost his parents in a fire when he was a child. He was adopted by a person who called himself a wizard. Disobeying his father-in-law, the main character has studied magic. However, because he lacked talent, he could obtain only one magic spell despite several years' training.

One day, the main character is accidently involved in a fight between two opposing masters. As he is dying, a girl suddenly appears and saves him.

"...Now, I ask you. Are you my master?"

He contracts with one of the seven servants, Saber. Willingly or not, he becomes a master, and plunges into a war over the Holy Grail...

The Japanese Ministry of Defense has an anti-paranormal special forces group called the Paranormal Disaster Countermeasure Headquarters.

They're the ones responsible to protect Japanese soil and its people from supernatural and paranormal events.

However, things didn't go so well in one of their missions, which leads to intervention by the Ministry of Enviroment's Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Division after the PDCH has sustained large numbers of casualties battling demons.

Main Character

Yomi Isayama (諫山黄泉 Isayama Yomi)

Voiced by: Kaoru Mizuhara

Sister-figure of Kagura Tsuchimiya who turned evil because of the power of the sesshōseki. Also, she was the person who killed Kagura Tsuchimiya's father. She was killed by Kagura herself and has turned completely evil in her afterlife. She was extraordinarily talented when alive and slaughtered over 70 ministry agents by herself, and defeated the head of the Tsuchimiya clan and his spirit beast, Byakuei. As an evil spirit, she becomes even more powerful. She tries to awaken a great demon sealed in Tokyo, and seals a piece of the sesshōseki in Nimura Kensuke. For this, she incurs Kazuhiro's wrath, and he takes away her own sesshōseki. She dies when the demon is re-sealed.

Kagura Tsuchimiya (土宮神楽, Tsuchimiya Kagura)

Voiced by: Minori Chihara
Always smiling, Kagura is the heroine of the story. She is feisty and ambitious and can put up a good fight with her spiritual beast, the Ga-Rei Byakuei (nicknamed Shirō), an inugami who resembles a large white dragon. She controls Byakuei from the seal on her back and a long chain that connects her soul to his, so any damage Byakuei receives also damages her as well. Over time, she becomes stronger and more motivated because of the support that Kensuke gives her. She shows signs of having feelings for Kensuke, as she gets jealous when Shizuru and Kensuke are spotted alone together and is shocked when Kyouko tells her that she should go out with Kensuke if she's worried about him. Although she initially treats Shizuru as a rival, they become closer as events in the manga progress.
